Course Goal / Objective
The interaction of weeds with disease and insects in an ecosystem,the correct use of these interactions and the benefits to the agroecosystem are the aim of this lecture.
Course Content
Interaction between weeds, diseases and insects in an ecosystem will be evaluated ecologically . The regulation of this relationship and its correct use in the agroecosystem will provide an economic contribution to agriculture.

Course Learning Outcomes
| Order | Course Learning Outcomes |
|---|---|
| LO01 | The relationship between weeds and disease factors is examined ecologically in an ecosystem. |
